Jeremy Kyle guest gives emotional interview after ex-fiancé's death

A former guest on The Jeremy Kyle Show has given an emotional interview following the tragic death of her ex-fiancé, after their appearance on the show.

Yesterday, it was announced that show had been taken off air, following the tragic death of a guest.

Jane Callaghan appeared on the programme with then-partner Steve Dymond (63), who wanted to take a lie detector test to prove he had not been unfaithful to her.

Unfortunately, Steve failed the test during the episode and he and Jane split soon after.

A devastated Jane told the Sun that Steve had insisted on taking part, despite being diagnosed with depression. She explains "He wanted to go on. He was really excited and confident. But it was all a front and I knew it. He wasn’t well at all."

She said "I know we split up a week ago but we were together for two years. He was still my fiancé. I still loved him. As much as he was a pig to me I still loved him... We got engaged Christmas Day 2017. He was crying, the love was real. He was the most generous and loving person. He was quietly struggling, and we didn’t know at the time. He cheated on me, I know he did. I can’t forgive but I just want him to be alive."
